For students with severe disabilities , teachers need to teach cause and effect:

1.Touching Anywhere - cause and Effect
2.Target and touch picture / pattern / music - teaches students to touch the screen and something will happen. This has touch and lift capacity... Something only happens when you touch and let go.
3.Next step is to teach touching a target - Think about the background of the program. Make sure it is not too busy with no distractive music
4.Find an object - touching something in particular.
5. Drag - touch to drag and dragging and dropping
